RESOLUTION: Next item to build

[Locutus]

This is a crucial point in the game as far as the build queue is concerned, our next item will affect our actions for dozens of turns to come. So what we build next is of crucial importanice. Therefore I feel an explicit poll for this issue is needed, something which the current government doesn't seem to agree with (Pedrunn already listed a Warrior as next build order in the orders thread, while he nor Wise Ass nor anyone else polled the issue).

So far we built two Warriors. What should our next order be? Another Warrior or a Settler?

(This poll will expire in 3 days.)



IMHO we should build a Settler now and turn both our cities into Warrior factories after that.

[Turambar]

What are the build times for both units?

[Locutus]

Hard to say, our city will soon grow again. Currently (at maximized production), 5 turns for the Warrior, 20 for the Settler. I haven't fully figured out the production formula yet (it seems some units get a discount or something), but I think this will be 4 vs 15 after the city growth.

[Martin Gühmann]

Settler, because we need a second production base, for building up our soon-be glorious army.

[Locutus]

Interesting, I had expected to be alone on this (but the poll is still young)...

[Turambar]

Build warriors. By the time the settler gets done there'll be barbs, Austrians and who knows what else hanging round the area trying to kill us.

Build up the army and take weak cities from the Austrians.

[HuangShang]

how can the settler be winning?

[Maquiladora]

The MoD requires another warrior to defend the river.

[HuangShang]

tied now

[Nimrod]

more cities=more production

[Zacharov]

We need more cities. Build the settler and shorten the production time with our gold

[Devil of Truth]

We'll lag behind if we don't build more cities.

[Dinner]

We can build 4 warriors in the time it takes to build one settler. Then we just take an Austrian city and we'll have the warriors and the city.

[HuangShang]

yeah, use the army, a preemptive strike is not something to worry about

[Pedrunn]

This poll is unconstitutional since it has to be yes or know poll (the idea is that resolution polls can only be run-offs since it does reflects the opinion of all community to the best option).
But you just need a simple change to make it constitutional.

Change the question to "Shall the next item of the build queue be a settler?"

options.

"yes" buid a settler
"No" as stated by the MoDA buid a warrior.
"Abstain"

the result will be the same I dont think there will have to be any need to restart it
